The warm water surrounds me, steam curling around the edges of the bathtub as I sink deeper, enjoying the rare moment of relaxation. Tian Lei's strong arms wrap around me from behind, his chest pressing against my back, and I can feel the steady thump of his heartbeat through his skin.

"Comfortable?" he murmurs, his breath tickling my ear.

I nod, closing my eyes as his hands rest lightly on my stomach. The silence is peaceful, but I've noticed how tense he's been lately—working long hours, always distracted. An idea forms in my mind, playful and mischievous.

Subtly, I shift my position, letting my ass brush against him under the water. Just a light contact, almost accidental. His body stiffens momentarily, but he says nothing.

Encouraged, I do it again, more deliberately this time. A slow, rolling movement of my hips against his growing hardness beneath the water. His arms tighten slightly around my waist, but still he remains silent.

This game is too fun. I continue the gentle, teasing movements, feeling him grow harder against me with each passing second. Finally, I pretend to adjust my position, grinding back against him fully, letting him feel exactly what he's doing to me.

A low growl rumbles in his chest. His hands slide down from my stomach to my hips, fingers digging into my flesh with delicious firmness.

"You're playing with fire," he warns, his voice already lower, rougher with desire.

I turn my head to look at him, feigning innocence with wide eyes and a slight pout. "What? I'm just getting comfortable." I grind back against him once more for emphasis, my own arousal growing with the game. "Though something does feel... different."

His eyes darken, any pretense of patience vanishing. He spins me around suddenly, the water sloshing over the edge of the tub as he pulls me onto his lap, straddling him. The look in his eyes tells me my teasing has come to an end—and the real fun is about to begin.
